The hype
Travelers love the free perks and friendly staff but are divided on the room temperature in warmer months.
Best Western Hotel Nuernberg Am Hauptbahnhof
$70-120/ nacht
Boek dit als You need a clean, no-nonsense crash pad steps from the train station with free beer in the fridge.
Waarom mensen ervan houden
- Free minibar (1 beer + 1 water per person/stay)
- 5-minute walk from Nuremberg Central Station (Hauptbahnhof)
- Surprisingly good soundproofing on street-facing windows
Snel Overzicht: A solid railway hotel that nails the basics but plays a dangerous game of 'Russian Roulette' with air conditioning in the summer.
Beoordeeld door @roxana.stanca: I booked a city trip to Nuremberg but ended up in this cozy safari-themed hideaway. The wooden balcony facing the courtyard was my favorite spot—so peaceful you forget you're near the train station. Definitely ask for a room on the quiet side!
Gast die hier verbleef zei
Reality check
The 'boutique' claim is a stretch; it's a clean, functional transit hotel where the 'courtyard view' is just a look at a parking lot.
- You're arriving by train and want to drop your bags immediately
- You appreciate freebies like a welcome beer and lobby coffee
- You plan to spend all day exploring the Altstadt and just need a clean bed
Schoonmaak & Onderhoud
8.8
- Housekeeping: Daily and efficient. Reviews consistently praise the 'spotless' nature of the rooms.
- Bathroom hygiene: Sparkling. Grout is generally clean, though some bathrooms are small and dated.
- Maintenance: Good overall, though some carpets show wear in high-traffic areas.
- Linens & towels: Fresh and crisp, though the pillows are the standard floppy German square type.
- Odors & scents: Generally fresh, occasionally heavy on the floral air freshener.

Veelgestelde vragen & Verborgen tips
Alles wat je eigenlijk wilt weten voordat je boekt.
Is there air conditioning?
Only in 20 out of 59 rooms. You must request it in advance or risk a room with just a fan.
Is breakfast included?
Usually no. It costs around €15-18 per person. It's a decent buffet, but not 'can't miss'.
How far is the Old Town?
About a 10-15 minute walk through the station tunnel or a quick subway ride.
Is the neighborhood safe?
Yes, but it's a station district (Südstadt/Mitte border). It's busy and gritty, but generally safe at night.
Is there parking?
Yes, a small courtyard lot (€10/night) and a nearby underground garage (€14/night). Spaces are tight.
Are pets allowed?
Yes, for a fee of €10 per night.
Tips van Insiders
- ✨
The 'free minibar' isn't restocked daily—it's a welcome perk (one beer, one water).
- ✨
There is a free coffee machine in the lobby available 24/7—skip the in-room instant stuff.
- ✨
Rent a bike directly from the hotel (often free or very cheap) to get to the Nazi Party Rally Grounds quickly.
5 dingen die je moet weten voordat je gaat
💡The elevator doesn't directly service every single room; some require a short walk or stairs.
💡The 'African themed' decor in some rooms is a bizarre, unexplained design choice for Bavaria.
💡You can hear the trains if your window is open, but it's a rhythmic white noise for some.
💡The hotel bar is surprisingly cozy for a nightcap if you don't want to venture out.
💡Housekeeping can be aggressive with air freshener—ask them to skip it if you're sensitive.
